Older adults undergoing age-related decrements in muscle health can benefit substantially
from resistance exercise training, a potent stimulus for whole muscle and myofiber …

Muscle senescence is a complex mechanism that is usually associated with a decrease in
mass, strength and velocity of contraction. This state, known as sarcopenia, is a multifactorial …

Background Oxidative stress-induced myoblast damage is one of the major causes of
skeletal muscle loss associated with inhibition of myogenic differentiation and muscle …

Microgravity (µG) experienced during space flights promotes adaptation in several
astronauts' organs and tissues, with skeletal muscles being the most affected. In response to …

Sarcopenia remains one of the major pathological features of type 2 diabetes (T2D),
especially in older individuals. This condition describes gradual loss of muscle mass …

Skeletal myofibers are injured due to mechanical stresses experienced during physical
activity, or due to myofiber fragility caused by genetic diseases. The injured myofiber needs …

Skeletal muscle growth and maintenance depend on two tightly regulated processes,
myogenesis and muscle regeneration. Both processes involve a series of crucial regulatory …

Satellite cells are bona fide muscle stem cells that are indispensable for successful post-
natal muscle growth and regeneration after severe injury. These cells also participate in …

The aim of this study was to determine whether neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES)
affects skeletal muscle regeneration through a reduction of oxidative status in satellite cells …

Frailty is a geriatric syndrome that leads not only to the loss of physical functions, but also to
a generalized decline of the organism and a high risk of disability and dependency. Frailty's …
